Abstract
The numerical modeling of the conjugate heat transfer and fluid flow through the micro-tube was presented in the paper. Three different fluids with temperature dependent fluid properties are considered: water and two dielectric fluids, HFE-7600 and FC-70. The diameter ratio of the micro-tube was D i/ D o = 0.1/03 mm with a tube length L = 70 mm, geometry used in [D. Lelea, Nishio S., Takano K., The experimental research on microtube heat transfer and fluid flow of distilled water, International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer 47 (2004) 2817–2830]. The laminar fluid flow regime is analyzed. Two different heat transfer conditions are considered: heating and cooling. The influence of the temperature dependent thermal conductivity on Nu number is analyzed for these two cases and compared with k = const.
